We're challenged to examine the condition of our spiritual soil. Drawing from Hosea 10:12, we're reminded that revival and renewal don't just happen - they require intentional preparation. Just as a farmer must break up hard ground before planting, we too must allow God to break up the fallow areas of our hearts. The imagery of sowing righteousness and reaping steadfast love beautifully illustrates how our actions and choices directly impact our spiritual harvest. This isn't about perfection, but about repentance and obedience. Are we planting seeds of compromise, or seeds of righteousness? The urgency of seeking God now, not later, rings clear. It's a call to break free from spiritual complacency and actively pursue a deeper relationship with Him. As we reflect on this, let's consider: What areas of our lives need God's plow? Are we truly seeking Him with the same fervor we seek other things?
